Powerful Atlanta Braves offense reaching new heights

As the Atlanta Braves navigated a challenging start to the second half, the offense has more than picked up the slack to help Atlanta maintain the best record in Major League Baseball. Grant McAuley discusses some of the offensive standouts and trends that have powered the Braves through the dog days of summer. Matt Olson continues to hit home runs at a blistering pace, strengthening an MVP case by leading MLB in both home runs and RBI. Olson discussed his success since moving to cleanup and how the depth of the lineup helps everyone be more productive. In one of the more bizarre stories in baseball of this or any season, the Orioles pulled lead TV broadcaster Kevin Brown off the air for comments deemed critical of the club. The baseball world responded by generating universal support and Brown returned to the broadcast booth over the weekend. Hear those comments, the support of fellow broadcasters and fans as well as ownership's miscalculated move in a discussion with Levi Weaver of The Athletic. All of that and a trip around the big leagues! Make sure to connect with From The Diamond on social media. Hear the show live every Sunday on 92-9 The Game in Atlanta.
